Streamers: Lumin U2 vrs Aurender N200

Thanks @dolfan . Juan at Bliss suggested I try that as well. I had done previously with USB cables. Tried with power cords this morning, though due to a very limited selection of quality spares I had to swap from one unit to another. So robbing Peter to pay Paul. I was able to improve things a bit, but since it is a cumulative effect it is hard to say if I am hurting the performance of another piece of gear. By that I mean perhaps I am not getting as much as I could out of the system as a whole by (perhaps) not optimizing the performance of each individual piece. No way to know without having some quality spares so only one unit is changed at a time. Guess I better buy some. 

Ahh... first world problems. We are so fortunate.

I use the network acoustic eno iii USB cable. LINKUP – [40Gbps Certified] Cat8 Ethernet Patch Cable Double Shielded Amazon. 

I’m feeding it fiber. Clean as a whistle. Cat 8 to converter, then fiber to the unit. All LPS.

try copper. No converters. Run straight from router/access point into U2. Use a good usb cable and a power cord. You may be surprised.
